2025 Year In Review
By Tami Stevenson
This last year saw many ups and downs in nearly every aspect of life, including the weather. People saw storms and temperatures beating records almost daily throughout the U.S., which left many asking what season they were in.
Incredibly, in the midst of all the other storms, the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season ended with no hurricanes making landfall in the U.S., the first time since 2015, despite a very active season.
Here are some of our top local highlights from 2025:
